Giving
Giving of time and resources is an act of discipleship.
Financial gifts to the local church are used to fund the ministry and mission of the Church locally, nationally and internationally. We believe the bible teaches that you should pray and then set aside the amount of money that God guides you to give.
‘Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.’ 2 Corinthians 9:7
How do I give?
There are a number of ways you can give financially:
- You can place unmarked cash in the offering bag during the service. Donations such as this will be completely anonymous and ineligible for a tax rebate.
- Using our Giving System, you can put cash or a cheque in an envelope with your ’Giving Number’ on it and place in the offering bag during the service. Contact the office and you will be given a ‘Giving Number’ for tax rebate purposes.
- You can make donations online.
- You can leave a legacy from your estate.
